I wear these daily. I haven't been able to abandon my reading glasses, but I do pull them out less often. I still need them for small print, and I find longer sessions of computer work easier if I use my readers, but I can often run into a store and grab a few items without needing to pull out my reading glasses, and I can log onto the computer and check a quick email or two without struggling. I was shown test results by my opthamologist that showed the Biofinity material is one of the best for allowing oxygen to reach the eye, and I do find that my eyes are less irritated after wearing my lenses for long periods (12-14 hours). One downside is driving at night--I've found these lenses to be much blurrier than other (unifocal) soft lenses I've worn. Also, although these are intended to be a one month lens, they start to get uncomfortable after 2-3 weeks. I've managed to wear them a full month but am considering buying an extra box so that I can replace them more often. This is too bad, especially given they are pricier than most lenses. Overall, I would recommend giving these a try if the cost is not a huge issue,

I wear contacts when I go out; usually wear glasses at home because I just see better with them. It takes several moments for these contacts to 'settle in' after I insert them before they feel okay to go out with and vision is clear. They are thicker than the Accuvue Bifocals I used for years (now discontinued), so took a little getting used to, but overall comfort is not an issue. Wish they had a 'right-side, wrong-side indicator' and a bit of color to make insertion easier.

I have been wearing these for several years. They are the best. I told my doctor that I didn't want to sacrifice my distance, so I tried these, and have never wanted to wear any others. There is a BUT to these though. I need reading glasses to do close up reading. I would rather buy a bunch of readers than give up my distance vision. I can live with this. I do wear these for extended periods such as 14+ hours. I know they need to come out then. I put my glasses on for a break, so there is no issue there either. Just great contacts.

Never wanted reading glasses and they were such an inconvenience. Took me 2 years of trial contacts to find a single contact to wear in my non-dominant eye so I could see the small numbers on the instruments I use at work. I use 1 reading-contact for 1 eye so I don't need reading glasses. Fianlly my doctor suggested this one and it was "love at first sight"! Instant match made in heaven. I could see my tiny instruments and then look up at my patients and not need to put glasses on-take them off- put them on again-or peer over the top like an old granny! I can easily forget I have it in. They are very soft so can be a little challenging to get them in until you find your own knack. So glad my doctor finally suggested these. I look amazing at 50 not hiding behind ugly "cheaters". And in the evening I can go on a date with my amazing hubby and read a menu without...you guessed it...pulling out reading glasses. Life is good now that I have my biofinity multifocals!!!
